to form vertical passages, as will be hereinafter more fully described, and the tiles forming the backs of all of the receivinfr crypts and the tiles forming the front sides and rear sides respectively of the end columns of receiving crypts are removed a distance from the adjacent walls so as to .torni intervening vertical air-spaces 13, Figs. I3 and 4, connected with the atmosphere near the bottom by openings la and near the top by openings l5, the extreme top of such spaces being closed by suitable masonry 1G. Air may therefore circulate through these air-spaces by entering,r the openings H and emerging from the openings l5, thereby efv fectually preventing condensation and therefore the accumulation of undesirable moisture upon the corresponding interior walls of the structure, as will be readily under@ stood.

The roof of the building is supported laterallj,7 by the side walls 3 and intermediat ely of such Walls by longitudinally placed mem bers 17 which may be caused to rest' upon the tops of the columns of the receiving,r crypts. A central partition or wall 1S is provided in the illustrated structure which supports the roof transversely, the latter being ol any suitable construction. This root' is caused to be located a distance above thev'crypt portion of the structure so as to provide airspaces 19 above the'latter, members 17 cutting olil communication between said airspaces and the lobbies. These air-spaces communicate with the atmosphere by means of vents 20 formed in the front, rear and side Walls ofthe building, as .shown in Figs. l and 2.

The tiles forming the sides and bacl: of the crypts are placed vertically upon cach other so as to form vertical inlet passages 2l and Outlet passages 22 between adjacent columns of crypts and vertical drain-passages 28 back of the crypts. Each of said crypts is provided with an inlet-opening Q4 and an outlet-opening 25. rThese inlety and ontlet.-openings are formed upon opposite sides 0f the interior of the crypts, the inlet-opening` being placed near the bottom and to- Ward the front thereof, and the outlet-opening being placed near the top and near the rear thereof, as is shown in Fig. Each inlet-opening is connected with a vertical inlet passage 2l and this passage is stopped, as at 2G, im mediatdy above such inlet-opening, as shown in li'ig. 5. The lower end of each inlet-passage connects with one of the longitudinal and horizontal air-passages 8, as is illustrated in Fig. 3. it will therefore be seen that the interior of each receptacle communicates with the atmosphere through these vertical air-passages, and the air passages or spaces 8, at a point below its interior.

Eaca outlet-opening Q5 communicates with a vertical outlet passage 22 and this passage is stopped as at. Fig. 5, immediately below such opening. The upper ends oi' these vertical outlet passages communicate directly with thc air-spaces l), and these latter' communicating. as before described, vvith the atmosphere, it will be, seen that connnunication between the latter and the interior of the receptacles is established.

All vertical passages, such i'. which do not forni outlet parages, are closed at the top by stops 2S, Fig. 3, and the bottoms of such vertical passages connect with horizontal passages S, so that. any condensed moisture which may form in these lastnained passages may drain down into such horizontal passages. lt vvill therefore be seen that by means otl the above-described construction. the interior of cach receptacle connected with the atmosphere at a point below such interior b v means of an airspace consisting' ol' one et' the passages 8 and a dnct consisting` of one of the inlet iiassages 2l, and also at a point above -such interior, by nie'ans of a duct consisting' of one of the outlet passages 22 and an air-space lll, the inlet and .outlctalucts or pass; es forming the sole communication between the lower air-spares t5 formed by the tiles and the up? per air-spaces l). `All inlet passages and outlet passages being stopped as before de scribed and passages 22 being closed at the top, it will therefore he seen that all of the air which circulates from the bottom npvvardly must pass through the crypts and the interior of each of the latter is furthermore provided with jan individual vcntilating system which is independent of. and disconnected from the interior of all oi' the other receptacles.

As previously described, the vertical airspaces 13 adjacent to stopped, as at lll, so that the circulation of air therethrough will not interfere with the almve-descrihed arran ;emcut for causing all of the air circulating through the crypt constructionto circulate through 'the' interiors of receptacles.

The bottoms ot' the respective. receptacles are. formed by horizontal slabs 2S), which are supported by the tiles, as is shown in Fig. 7. The frontend of each receivin crypt is closed by means of a suitable sla 30. ln the rear end of each crypt is formed an opening` 3l, each of which is connected with a vertical passage Q3 formed by the tiles which form the rear ends of the receptaclcs. These openings are placed so that their lower extremities vvill be flush with or be interseeted by the plane of the lloor so that. they may receive any fluid formed or present in the interior of the receptacles. The lower ends of these vertical fluid drains Q3 communicate with a common longitudinally arranged duct 1 shown in Fig. 4,

the outer vvalls are plurality of inclosed recciviiig-crypts, cach provided with an oiitletopeii1iig and an inlet-opening: an upper air-spaceg a plurality of air-passages respectively connecting said outlet-openings with said uppei air-space;

and a plurality ot duets each eoniiectinfcf in tiers and spaced transversely with respect to said passages, each crypt provided with an inlet and an outlet-opening; a plurality of vertical passages each eoiianunirating at its lower end with one of said horizontal passages, the upper end ot' each such vertical pe ".:age communicating with one ot the inlet-openings in lsaid crypts; a second Awrites ot' vertical passages each having its lower end .connected with one. of the outlet-openl l l i l l l l l i i l l l l l l ings of said crypts, and having its upper end coininunieating,r with the atmosphere; said passages forniiiig the sole connnunieation between the interior of said: erypts and the atmosphere, whereby a inttural drat't is formed.
